Another '74 I've had sitting around in pieces for a few years and finally got around to putting together a month or so ago. In the time since I acquired it I've migrated to larger frames, so I won't keep this one around for long. But it's a nice ride which, of course, they all are.

23" CTT. I used to be fine with that but over time I've adopted a more upright riding position, with my height and inseam I've found that 24" -25" or the rough metric equivalent works better for me these days. The International I posted prior to this one fills that bill nicely.

Here is something my brother in law just recently bought, the decals are 90% gone, and we are hoping to restore this back to life, any advice from the thread would be very much appreciated..
